Bionic Commando Socials Round Up

There wasn’t a whole lotta action for Bionic Commando. Heck, I didn’t even get very far in it. I still plan on finishing it…eventually. First off, I felt the need to point out how annoying this cable headed man was. The guy’s telescoping hat does no damage…

Ready your atomic breath, folks. This month’s game is Godzilla! They’ve been around for over 70 years and have starred in a ton of video games, but none are perhaps more of a departure from the usual smash n’ bash than this odd little arcade puzzle/action…

Just the fact I’m controlling a dude named Nathan “Rad” Spencer feels so early nineties; if you grew up in that era, you definitely had things marketed to you in a very over-the-top manner. The Simpsons’ take on that corporate tactic via Poochie or…

Bionic Comandown – Rick V.

I know having the enemies never ducking is a trope in a lot of old video games. I just found the first couple of levels so easy just because you have the ability to crouch down and the baddies don’t. I believe on Area 5 some of the enemies learned to do…

Spanky’s Quest Social’s Round Up

Going to try something new here. We always post something about the game-of-the-month on our Bluesky/Insta/Discord at least twice a week. We figured at some point we should post the more notable things shared on the website. So, here’s some junk about…

Shock the Monkey – Jeff Brown

Spanky’s Quest is a puzzler/platformer from Natsume that was released in 1992. It’s a unique game with an equally unique title that was the source of many jokes from me and my friends, who were at the perfect age to revel in a monkey named “Spanky” and the…

The stupid month is over. The short one. The one that always sneaks up on ya. I guess it’s good we had an arcade-y type game like Spanky’s Quest for February! Are you all monkey’d out? Well, we’ve got a neat one for March – We’re playing Bionic Commando!…

A Mario Land by Any Other Name – D’arcy Briggs

If there’s any place to wax nostalgia on Game Boy, it’s within the pages (digital or printed) of Yokoi Kids. Warioland is one of those games that brings me back to a time- one where collections were small, cherished, and unorganized in our bedside table.…

A Spankin’ Good Quest on Game Boy? – Lord Reptile

Much like how Pyramid Head once punished strange creatures in front of James for avoiding his guilt, Spanky the Monkey has arrived on Game Boy to punish the odd enemies in Spanky’s Quest. Spanky lives up to his title as a punisher and is well equipped for…
